Well, all sorted with the packing and everything. Just need to sort out my posh sausage butties for lunch now and then I'm ready to go. Sure I've forgotten something and it will probably come to me when we'r 10,000 feet in the air. Weighed the case to make sure I'm within the limit and thought I might as well weigh myself too. It isn't something I do too often. Anyway since I was weighed a year last November when I had a medical before doing a stem transfer for my brother, I have actually lost nearly one and a half stone. I could tell from my clothes that I had lost weight but I'm quite chuffed with that.
Anyway, if I thought my trip up to Liverpool was going to go without hitches I've just learned otherwise. Had a call from my sister. I was meant to be going out with them tonight for her birthday but her son has had a positive lateral flow test for work. He took one yesterday which was negative. He has zero symptoms but is only 31 and fully vaccinated so that wouldn't be a surprise. Anyway, if the PCR results don't comer back by tonight then dinner is off. It's a double whammy for me because I had ever intention of getting him pissed before explaining to him the delights of cruising.

On boats may I add.
Weather down here is beautiful and I hope it stays that way for the flight. I think I've booked a window seat but it's that long since I've been on a plane I don't know. 6F.
